lol. you see. the concept for time-traveling or even teleporting is that you break down the molecules of the thing or a person you want to sent to the past or teleport, the question is can they be returned to what their true form is? is the person sent or teleported will still be human after? since it is breaking down a thing or person into molecular level and then reconstructing it again, that's one of the main reasons why "teleporting" and "time-traveling" are deemed impossible.

so Okarin and Daru managed to return a piece of banana back to its place, but instead of being just a banana, it's a gel-bana, why? since it didn't managed to return to it's original form bec. it is broken down into molecular levels and has not been reconstructed. As per analysis of Okarin before that, he found out that the gel-bana was break down into molecular levels right.
well this are just my theories as per my understand of "time-traveling" or "teleporting" concepts
and now HUMAN IS DEAD.... JELLYMAN!!!!!!!! Now that is CREEPY. >.<

Yes, I realize that to the people who have played the VN, my ranting must sound silly. However, I love this show, so there's nothing wrong with me trying to make sense of things with what I've been given thus far.

So yeah, I think that the new Titor is Okabe from the future, and that the old Titor back in 2000 was someone else who was killed by SERN, thus deleting him in everyone's memories except for Okabe's for some reason. Because Okabe remembered, something makes the future him decide to go back in time and pick up where the original Titor left off.

Remember in the 2nd episode when Okabe first learns about the new person on @channel claiming to be Titor, he says "What, so Titor's Japanese this time, huh?" I think that this obviously points to it being a different Titor.

Also, (and I didn't read the first episode discussion so forgive me if it's been said already) remember the first episode the first time Okabe runs into Kurisu at the conference and Kurisu keeps saying "You said you had something important to tell me 15 minutes ago" but Okabe doesn't know what she's talking about. In fact, he doesn't know her at all, though she seemed to have had contact with him before.

Thus, I think that THAT Kurisu had come into contact with an alternate-Okabe, who told her that he had something to tell her. And that something was to warn her about her getting stabbed. But for some reason they got separated.

Then, Kurisu found current-Okabe listening to the conference and dragged him out, mistaking current-Okabe for alternate-Okabe.

Remember that the scream that Okabe and Mayuri heard was male, but the body that Okabe found was Kurisu's.

It's likely that alternate Okabe was killed before Kurisu was stabbed. Alternate-Okabe's scream brought Kurisu running. She got there before current-Okabe and got stabbed.

It's obvious that current-Okabe got drawn into an alternate timeline where Kurisu didn't get stabbed, but beyond that it's also obvious that the stabbed Kurisu had talked to an alternate-Okabe.

WHOA WAIT. While I was typing this I just had a flash of something. It's possible that both Titors are alternate Okabes. THAT'S why in the new timeline that current-Okabe got drawn into, the conference was canceled. Remember that the professor who was supposed to give the lecture at the conference was plagiarizing John Titor completely.

If year 2000 Titor-Okabe was the person who was killed at that conference, then ALL of the information that the professor would have plagiarized would not exist in the new timeline. Thus the conference was canceled because he had nothing to present and didn't want to embarrass himself.

The new Titor-Okabe decided to come to this year instead of 2000 because he somehow knew that there was an IBN 5100 in Akihabara at this time.

The only thing that I think I don't cover in all I've currently said is why wasn't the first Titor-Okabe (the year 2000 one) Japanese? Or maybe he just didn't post in Japanese? But Okabe doesn't seem to know English. This is where my speculation has no hints from the show to back it because we could just say "Well, Okabe learned English in the future" but nothing from the show backs up that statement, unlike everything else I've written.

We are not talking JUST teleporting. We are talking "teleporting between parallel universes", which is exactly what time travel is in this show.

Oh and also, information tends to get lost in a black hole :)

What you are describing is the grandfather paradox or so called causality problem. THE MAIN reason on why time travel in same universe is impossible.


SO yeah, just like explained in ep 2 and this episode, its more like the information being sent(or creating) a parallel line. There's still a line where kurisu-tina dies, and from that line, Okarin sent that message. Hence why the time travel is more like teleporting objects and information into parallel universes, from the teleporter's pov, SHIFTING that parallel universe into his own.


Yes, because he CHANGED things.

Imagine a guy holding a knife.

He is standing on the glass floor, bellow which green colored metal plate.

The floor changes colors when a button in the other side of the room is hit.

However the guy himself can't leave the glass floor and push the button, since the glass floor is reality.

SO he takes a knife and throws it at the button.

Knife hits the button, changing the color bellow him from green to red.

So he has knowledge that the floor changed, however if he was on the metal plate below the glass floor, he most likely would not notice any difference if someone above did the knife stuff.


Its the same with parallel universes.

LOL. i'm just stating what i know about "time-traveling" and "teleporting". It's not a theory or hypothesis for the whole system to which Steins;Gate's universe follows. ^^
